4 years without a change of oil isn't the best thing to do,as you know oil degrades if the car is used or not

Mileage is a massive premium. If you can validate the oil change between 2010 & 2014 then I can't see an issue. £50-60K value?? |

Good point. 9500 miles between valve clearance checks. Still think the car would sell on mileage alone. |

If it's reference selling, it would go on low mileage and IMO the service history is good enough to cover it. I would have had the oil changed every 2 years which would of maximised the resale ££

With such demand for the cars agree it will sell on the mileage alone

This has got me thinking as ours has not had the valve clearences done either.
